New painting...

Both pieces will be shown at an upcoming group show in Colorado.
The first one of the mini series, I did a couple months ago. Basing the piece on the amazing Oreo Dory fish and the building on a home in Haiti. The second, and newest one is based on the small Atlantic Thread Herring and the building on the slums in parts of India. I love hearing viewers interpretations before explaining the story behind them. Enjoy...

Inspiration...

I am working on several projects at once over the past few weeks. I often get asked the same question, "What inspires you?" Through commissions, the internet, and life I am bombarded with imagery. Anytime I see an image of any sorts that captures my eye and intrigues me I add it to my large "Inspire" folder. There is never one thing that inspires me. It's an overload of this and that at once. Here are just a few images that have inspired me over the past few weeks. Enjoy...

"Lost At Sea" music video...

In January 2010, I flew to New York to work on some animation for a music video project. I planned out the story board, drew and painted all the characters & creatures; we spent almost 5 full snow filled days working on this short film. But sadly, Due to lack of time and budget, the video was never completed.
The video was being made for the band Owl City. But only a hand full of people ever saw what we did complete.

Now, 16 months later, you can now see what we worked on & some behind the scene shots. Enjoy...

Sea Font...

Every so often I do graphic work for clients. I recently was asked to create a new font & logo based on sea life. The company also wanted it based off an existing font they liked. It was kinda fun and a challenge. Here is a small example of a few of my favorite letters...

6 full days in Denver..

I flew out to Denver, Colorado for a little bit of work, tons of friends, music, and an amazing time! Seriously one of the best trips I have ever been on. I'll briefly fill you in...
The first night I got to see a private practice session from Dispatch in a large arena. Then had some dinner with a bunch of local Denver friends. The next morning I headed up to the mountains to go snowboarding for the first time. I was pretty bad at it. The 12,00ft elev plus the cold ice up in the Arapahoe Basin was no good for this Florida native. That night was the first Dispatch show at Red Rocks Amphitheater. Three nights of 10,000+ fans. Sold Out shows. Having a VIP lounge pass and Backstage pass was pretty amazing. Got to hang a bit with the FloBots one night as well. The Dispatch fans are so passionate about the music. Signing at the top of their lungs and dancing for 3hrs without stopping. An overwhelming experience each night there. I stayed in a house full of 6 other close friends. Every night sharing stories, playing games, painting, writing goofy songs together, watching film footage, making meals, driving around town, going to galleries, running around downtown Denver, etc. I have so many amazing & creative people in my life that I am extremely grateful for! This was another amazing adventure. To see more pics check out my Flickr Page.
